Are these two guys lying lefties out to discredit the administration & the effort in Iraq ??? Do you think you might owe us here an appology for your own behaviour here ? Just wondering Doug

Post #154,321 by rcareaga 5/8/04 4:30:46 PM Reply	philbot's "dissenting" points ...are without exception criticisms of the regime for being insufficiently bloodthirsty. You'll note that this week, when most folks are talking about Abu Ghraib, he wants to discuss anything but: "Oil for Food!" "Yellowcake uranium from Nigeria (Nigeria, Niger, who cares, they're all niggers)." The empty fedora will be even scarcer here this month than it was last. In the unlikely event he should deign to remark on Abu Ghraib in the course of his occasional appearances, look for variations on one or more of the main freeper talking points: No biggie; troops engaged in harmless horseplay Saddam did much worse Other Arab regimes are beastly to their prisoners Don't judge Our Brave Boys by a few bad apples Lesbians/gays/women in the military are at fault They didn't apologize for the charred mercenaries at Fallujah They didn't apologize for 9/11 Look how forthcoming we're being Hey, it's war, get over it Other rationalizations invited. It would never do to underestimate the fecundity of the philbot's delusional constructs. cordially, Die Welt ist alles, was der Fall ist.
